Wallabies squad named

[Scott Allen]

Once again, the camp was held over the weekend when the clubs don't usually train anyway, the boys were all on flights home Monday morning.

It's not as though they were plucked out mid-week just before the season starts. A large number of those who toured in the EOYT were still on holidays.. And then there are those didnt tour who haven't been in the wallaby set-up for months.. Genia, Pocock, Horwill, JOC (James O'Connor).

The camp was for two days - started on the Monday and continued on the Tuesday. Following are some articles for confirmation:

All Wallabies were due back from holiday with their provinces on that Monday so camp was not conducted in their holidays.

Ah ok Tapuai tweeted that he retuned homes Moday morning but Pocock also tweeted that he returned to Brumbies training on Tuesday...

Either way I think it's silly to get upset over such a minute timeframe, it's better off done now then wasting time in the critical 2 or 3 weeks prior to the Lions teat match when they need to be focussing on their actual game plan and skills.
